Be prepared to be immersed in a flavour expedition, as we delve into the latest happenings in Brisbane Quarter’s vibrant food scene.
Let’s start with the reels and videos. We’ve been working hard to bring you some seriously captivating content. From quick ‘Meet the Tastemaker’ recipe demos to exclusive peeks into what’s on offer here at Brisbane Quarter, we’ve got your cravings covered. And as promised, we’re gearing up to go back behind the pass to meet more of the tastemakers in a series that introduces you to the brilliant skills behind Brisbane Quarter’s flourishing foodie culture. Trust me, you won’t want to miss it – I’m hoping you’ll be as obsessed with these videos as we are!
Now, let’s dive into the Sunshine State High Tea happening at W Brisbane’s Living Room Bar. Forget everything you thought you knew about traditional high teas. This one is unlike anything you’ve experienced before. We’re talking native ingredients taking centre stage, coming together to paint a picture of truly stunning Queensland experiences.
Picture this: strawberry gum, macadamia, rosella, and wattleseed gracing your palate in the most delightful mini bites. Say hello to the beach-themed salted caramel mousse with its chocolate and macadamia sand jewel, capturing the essence of our coastal destinations. Indulge in the exotic sunset marshmallow tart, paying homage to those mesmerising Brisbane sunsets. And brace yourself for the native spice-infused earl grey mousse, inspired by the dramatic thunderstorms that roll through Queensland. Move over sweets, it’s time for the savoury bites to shine with lobster brioche buns featuring seafood from Townsville, Yeppoon spanner crab on rye, and Toowoomba free-range egg sandwiches complete the savoury list – each one a flavour sensation. And for a touch of fun, Queensland inspired puzzle pieces printed on Belgian white chocolate.
We can’t forget about the drinks. Sip on a tropical delight cocktail and transport yourself to the lush wonders of North Queensland, champagne or bottomless teas and barista coffee.
Get your calendars out and make a date with this exceptional high tea experience that showcases the very best of Queensland flavours. It’s an adventure for your taste buds that will leave you craving more.
